If you are one of the unlucky ones who can’t make the original Facebook Application to sync its contacts with your phone / Google contacts on Custom ROMs such as AOKP , ( CyanogenMod ) or MIUI . This solution is the solution for you. It ‘will make the original FB application Sync it’s contacts with the Contacts app. I’ve created a flashable zip method using CWM and another one using ADB+Windows as well.

After setting up CM10 I flashed this over (Fastboot method)

This will enable Sync dialog on the original Facebook application, just like it used to do on Gingerbread.

Note:

If the Contact Pictures are not loading, give it some time and keep the contacts application on with internet connected. It is slow , and it is because of slow FB servers.

If this whole thing leaves you into a bootloop ( very unlikely ) or lot of FC’s ( very much likely if you didn’t reboot / if you flashed the wrong zip ) , You can reflash your current ROM to fix it. Eg: If you were on the CM9 2012-07-31 , flash the CM9 2012-07-31.zip again over your phone. No need to wipe and no need to format to revert this -hack- back.

Prerequisites:

S-OFF

Fair knowledge of ADB/Fastboot

You should be having at least one account or phone number in the phone book, This is to ensure that contacts database is initialized. So -DO NOT- flash this directly after wiping or installing a new ROM, do it after first boot.

ADB/Windows Method:

Files: Extract the corresponding zip from the rar attached( Filenames have date and ROM mentioned)

Download the ‘FBSync_ADB_xx’ zip file corresponding to your ROM.

Extract it to a folder. For eg: to your desktop.

Connect your phone in debug mode. ( You can enable debugging mode from your phone Under Development > Enable Debugging mode ) .

Run patch_db.cmd with administrator privileges ( this is a must if you have UAC enabled ). For this, Right click ‘patch_db.cmd’ and select ‘Run as Administrator’ If you cant run as admin (adb not found) run as normal

Reboot the phone.

Warning:

If you wipe the phone/contacts, you will have to flash the zip again.

Flash it after booting it once onto your phone and adding an account other than FB, preferably. This is to ensure that the database has been created. If you already have accounts , clear them , leave one phone contact preferably.

I’m not responsible for any data loss. If you mismatch the ROM and ZIP then it’s bound to soft-crash the phone.

My Thoughts:

Well I really loved the FBsync feature on the stock ICS roms and whatnot; being able to have ur contacts picture sync automatically is something i couldn't live without. This feature was broken in most AOKP ROMS (CM10,MIUI) and it was really a deal breaker for me. I tried alot of thing to make it work and this is the only thing that would work. Its great because I love CM10 how fast and smooth it was. Just couldn't fbsync which sucked. Now this completed my phone :good:

Uber Facebook sync in the play store does this as well.

[Android Apps and Games] dEris:
No it does not enable native sync with the Facebook app. The app you mention does the syncing and not the actual Facebook app.

Yes but the results are different. One does hd and the other doesn't. One does cropping and the other doesn't. They are totally different.

So it's more like green regular tomatoes vs ripe cherry tomatoes? It's kinda the same but sorta different.
[Android Apps and Games] oae08:
You surely dont know what you are talking about. Im using ubersync and it does have options for hd and for cropping. Not sure what you are trying to say :/
[Android Apps and Games] dEris:
I do know what I'm talking about. I'm saying the Facebook app doesn't sync HD photos while uber and haxsync do.

Also you're telling me uber and the mod in the op are the same, when they are not. This uber app doesn't activate native facebook sync like what the op has posted. Uber does all the work and not facebook... this mod in op is totally different uber. Tomato is not tohmato is this case .

[NEXUS⁴] [XYLON] [MATR1X8] [TWRP]
[Android Apps and Games] oae08:
Syncing hd now is worse than crappy pictures? And if you tell me limited data therr is an option in uber to sync only on wifi. Also there is an option to sync crappy resolutions if you like that :p

Anyways if it makes you sleep the night. Yes they are different but the result is the same.
[Android Apps and Games] dEris:
I'm not saying native facebook syncing is better. It's not. It's not in hd. I'm just saying that you're wrong when you said uber is the same as this mod when it's not. What don't you understand? And the end result is NOT the same, one is in hd and the other is not.....just like you previously stated ..... :rolleyes:

Oh by the way, I sleep just fine.

[Windows Phone 8x by HTC] ZaneKaminski:
So, recently, an exploit has been developed for Windows RT devices that allows modifying the minimum signing level constant for the extent of the time that Windows is running. The exploit works on Windows RT devices to allow them to run unsigned native code, but interestingly enough, can also be used on regular x86 devices to change that same value. Since WP8 devices are built on the same NT kernel, it is likely that they enforce signature verification in much the same way, and we may be able to exploit this vulnerability on our devices.

For this to work, there are at least these prerequisites...

The WP8 remote debugger needs to let us mess with the CSRSS process.

There needs to actually be a CSRSS process, or something else we can exploit that makes a call to NtUserSetInformationThread.

If this exploit works on WP8, an easy way (as in, on the start screen or something) to load unsigned/native applications on the device and execute them would be nice.

I don't know much about any of those things. Would someone more knowledgeable care to shed some light on the subject?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaldius:
This is utter and total bull**** the JB leak is rock solid stable and everything works and it was compiled back in November and we have almost the end of January now and they still can't give us an official release!

DAMN YOU SAMSUNG DAMN YOU TO HELL!!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Who cares ? Go complain to Samsung. *****ing/moaning about it here won't change squat. Samsung make their phones/firmware for the 97% of people who use their phones 'normally'. Not for people like us. They'll release firmware when they're satisfied that it works as intended almost all of the time for those 97% of people.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Anderson:
Many users experience a significant battery drain when using the leaked 'official' JB ROM, so regardless of how stable it might be there must be some doubts about whether it is really ready for use.

Also, the leaked ROM fits the existing system memory partition but we have seen plausible reports that the official JB release will require the re-partitioning of the device's memory. If that is so, one assumes that the leaked ROM is incomplete. The missing components might be the very reason why it is taking longer to finalise.

Furthermore, when the leak was made Samsung didn't know about the Exynos 4 chip exploit which blew a rather big hole in their device security. It is therefore reasonable of them to postpone their JB release plans and go back to fix some serious issues first.

And finally, with the imminent launch of the Galaxy S2 plus one can understand why Samsung might be tempted to make a cynical play for more sales by delaying the JB launch for the original SGS2.

Patience - what will be will be...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
If it is rock solid stable and everything works, why the hurry to get the official?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaldius:
Man I don't care what their stupid excuses are and the brick bug was fixed by our custom kernel makers in like one day so that's certainly no excuse to delay it.

Hello,

I own a LG Optimus 4X HD phone and recently flashed an Android 4.1 rom ported by Dexter_nlb. Everything is good except that only one of the four cores of the Tegra 3 cpu is utilized(System Tuner shows that cpu1~3 are always "offline", and benchmark get CPU score similar to a single-core CPU). I am very interested in linux and android system, can anyone point out how I can examine the problem in detail or how to fix it?

Thanks

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] troed:
I have me beloved 10.1. in continous use since last August, that means charging, discharging, charging every day

Last Thursday I got stuck at the airport due to snow blizzards in Vienna for 11 hours and my charger was in the suitcase already checked in.

I was working all day on UMTS-connection, emailing, reading news mags, streamin Youtube and TV-channels, watching a movie from SD-card, drafting lectures, sorting photos, syncin with Google drive and Skydrive, painting some graphics for lectures and so on mostly on 75% screen brightness.....

When finally I got onto the airplane I still got 36% batt left giving me the chance to read my ebook stored on the SD with kindle-app (40% screen brightness 1 hr).

When finally at the hotel after some 16 hours counted from the time of disconnecting the charger in the morning at 6 am (after landing I had to do some nav with Google-Maps) I still had 20 % batt left.

For me the Note 10.1 is the ultimate device wouldn´t know how to beat THAT ........ :D

Re: Note 10.1 saved my life last Thursday

Here I was expecting to read that someone mugged you at gunpoint and you were holding the tablet up in front of you for the thief to take when the gun accidently went off sending the bullet through the tablet and into your chest, then as you fell and died, the tablet landed on your chest and some stray wiring coupled with the battery acted as an impromptu defibrillator sending enough of an electrical impulse to your heart that you were brought back to life and saved by the tablet...

I feel very disappointed and mislead by your post title.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] dtl:
wow that is what I like to hear!.

I have moved from my HP TouchPad (ICS and JB) which was with me all the time. Bat life was not great maybe 4 hours at heavy (wifi, BT, etc) use. Now comes the 10.1. I must admit it has not left my side and just learning to use one of the main reasons I got it (writing) but have been weiry of bat life from the long use of the TP. Now I must try. I do alot of flights to Eurpoe and would like a 7 to 10 hour experience with the note.

On another note :). Based on the lecture comments I wonder it you teach. If you do can you provide some insights as to how you use the note for classes. I have a hdmi adapter coming in (sometime in the next three years I think, been on backorder for ages).

Thanks for any comments,

dave
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] midas69:
I too came from an HP Touchpad before getting the Note. The difference in battery is major, especially in standby mode. That's where the TP was really bad for me. I'd easily lose 20% overnight.

That was the main reason I bought the Note. I knew I was going to be in the hospital for an extended period of time, turned out to be 9 days. And I knew I'd be using it heavily.

It was the right choice. I had one instance where I had stats like this:

3 hr 50 min of screen time

10 hr 6 min of WiFi on

134 hr 27 min total on time (that's 5½ days)

Now imagine how many times you'd need to recharge the TP.

On the Note I still had 55% battery left :victory:

Only reason I recharged at that point was I knew I'd be using it about 8 hours the next day.

while the gangster tried to lift his sword for a first strike he threw his note with all his might into the face of the gangster, sprinting after it and retake it to hit him upon the head with the mighty gorilla glass. And when the gangster lies in coma on the road he kisses his note and they walk away, together-

To OP, in what way was your life threaten? the blizzard? If that's the case your note 10.1 would not have saved your life no matter what. Maybe if you're McGyver and opened up the Note 10.1 and use its battery to start a fire to keep warm or something. At best, it saved you 16 hours of boredom.

To give a title such as yours is borderline insulting to others who actually were in a life and death situation. Had your car plummeted 50 feet off the cliff and up on impact destroyed your phone and you were trapped for 3 days and the only way of communication was your N8000. You made an emergency 911 call and they traced your position using the N8000's on-board GPS then yeah, your Note saved your life.

To use your note 10.1 to cure 16 hours of boredom is hardly saving your life.

Here's something for you travelers. I travel long distances and use my Note 10.1 for consumption. I got this during Samsung's 50% off accessories "deal" for $50. It's fantastic. Small, light, comes with special short cables for the propriatery tablet port and micro USB and is 9,000mAh which is enough to fully charge the Note 10.1 with almost enough left over for a charge on the N2. It recharges in about 3-4 hours which is fast for a battery extender. It also has an on/off switch so it doesn't trickle drain when not being used like a lot of the cheaper solutions do. It daisy chains too. If you plug a device in to its USB port while the it's charging it charges the device first and then itself. I highly recommend it for long distance travel or when you're not sure where the next AC outlet will be.

Here's a pic showing how small it is next to a N2 battery...

No insult was intended by the post title, it was meant more humoristic, maybe I had better put it in brackets.. For that You have to know: 1.) me, 2.)Vienna Airport Terminal F

1. I always try to be a precise and punctual individual, love my physical freedom (meaning I am somehow claustrophobic) and what drives me litteraly insane is to be "imprisoned" and to have to wait for hours for something without the chance to use this time productively.

2. Terminal F has the charm of a funeral hall

This is how my Note 10.1 "saved my mental live" keeping me busy and productive just as I would sit in front of my workstation at home .....:D

For one of the posters asking how I use the Note for lectures:

1. Provided there is a beamer with a HDMI-connector there is no problem with the MHL-cable

2. for beamers with VGA-connector: no solution yet (except some complicated constructions with AllCast-Dongle and active HDMI to VGA-adapter which means to carry around a bunch of cables and boxes (from which I gladly abstain). Only solution: transfer work to Laptop and do the lectures then with the laptop. I hope Airdroid will develop so far that You can beam directly to the laptop.
